 One day I packed my stuff into a duffel bag. I drove to a small town near the coast, 100 miles away, stayed at first in a Motel 6. That was where I lived at first and got a job as the overnight DJ on a small rock station. Now, it wasn't exactly an exploratory expedition on a ship in the 18th century. I'll give you that. But it was a way to completely change my situation, strike out on my own, take myself wildly outside of my comfort zone, chart a new path for myself. To do something that like a couple of years before, I didn't think like, why? I never thought I'd be doing this of all things.
